This is on an old Dell Pentium/100. This may or may not be related, but
it requires pci=conf1 (for 2.4) or pci=conf2 (for 2.5) to get proper
lspci output. I get similar results with Jouni Malinen's hostap_pci
driver (works in 2.4, not in 2.5), which makes me think something
changed in 2.5 that broke both drivers. This is a Linksys WMP11 PCI
wireless adapter.
I don't have anything fancy (himem, preempt, etc) compiled into the
kernel, just the basics for a wireless AP/firewall.
Thanks for any help you can provide! I'm happy to supply any additional
information or test solutions upon request. I'm not subscribed, so
please cc me.

This hardware never worked in my computer (tool old). I would
suggest complaining on the kernel mailing list with the details above
(and below - plus lspci -v), as it seems to point out to a generic PCI
problem, not a driver problem.
